    Nice and little-traveled itinerary where you will find many opportunities to take a sunny break: the charming hunters' hut, the cozy San Felice mountain hut with its large fireplace, and the sunny Lake Tret.

    Author’s recommendation

    The Tillhittl hut is a charming little house located in the center of a large sunny clearing. It is always open and well maintained, so it must always be respected and any waste must be carried down.

    Safety information

    The route does not present particular technical difficulties. However, you need to be familiar with the snowy environment. Alternatively, we always recommend relying on a mountain guide in one of our guided winter excursions: book comfortably online here!

    Tips and suggestions

    Before undertaking a snow hike always check the avalanche bulletin here!

    Roadbook

    From the Lochmannbrücke parking lot, along the main road just after the village of San Felice, take the forest road that goes up towards the San Felice mountain hut and Lake Tret / Felixer Weiher.

    At an altitude of 1487 meters, leave the forest road and turn left following the trail marker 56. You immediately cross a small stream on a wooden footbridge and then continue always uphill through the woods.

    The path emerges at the foot of the large meadows called “Tillwiese” where the charming Tillhittl hut is located. We suggest you take 5 minutes and go up to the hut.

    To continue, descend to the foot of the meadows and take the flat forest road marked with 58, which then gradually descends to the San Felice mountain hut.

    After warming up in front of the large fireplace of the mountain hut, we recommend continuing to the nearby Lake Tret / Felixer Weiher before returning downhill following trail markers 49 and 56, first on a path and then on a forest road returning to the Lochmannbrücke parking lot.
